Demonstration event robot comm

Our team is heading off to a demonstration event this weekend. Probably not uncommon! The particular venue we will be at has lots of wireless communications. From past years, I expect that we will have wireless communications problems - especially when the crowd shows up.

What solutions have people identified for this situation?
Has anyone assembled an 'FMS light' for such events?

By 'FMS light' I imagine a single wireless router and configuration software such that each robot's radio (along with locking out all other MAC addresses!) can connect to the field and each team' control station can connect to that team's robot. Hopefully this description helps.

Thanks for comments!
